Psychicemotus
by Yusef Lateef
A hypnotic and meditative journey from the great multi-instrumentalist Yusef Lateef. The album continues his pioneering exploration of 'world music' within a jazz context, featuring his use of flute and oboe to evoke Eastern tonalities. The music is deeply atmospheric and spiritual, using simple, repetitive vamps to create a trance-like state. It's a key document of Lateef's unique ability to create music that is both intellectually deep and spiritually resonant.
